Reasons for the Anti-Slip System Warning Light to Illuminate

Reasons for the anti-slip system warning light to illuminate: 1. Accidentally pressing the ESP off button; 2. Loose or faulty sensor connectors; 3. Short circuit in the wiring or related fuse blown; 4. Software issues causing poor signal transmission; 5. ABS pump failure. The vehicle anti-slip system, also known as ESP, is designed to control the longitudinal and lateral stability of the vehicle, ensuring it moves according to the driver's intentions. The ESP system consists of a control unit, steering sensor, wheel sensor, skid sensor, and lateral acceleration sensor. The working principle of the anti-slip system is that the various sensors of the ESP system provide information to the ECU. When the vehicle experiences skidding or fishtailing, the system can determine whether the car is understeering or oversteering based on the information. It then sends commands to the hydraulic unit to control the braking force of the corresponding wheels and simultaneously controls the engine to reduce power output, thereby stabilizing the vehicle and preventing fishtailing or skidding.
